Custom Postcard Ideas and Giveaway

I am a postcard junkie. I love receiving them (hint to all my traveling friends!) and I love sending them. It's cheaper to send a postcard, it offers an avenue for creative brevity, and it's simple. I've sent postcards for Christmas since Brandon was a baby, because I can share the message of Christmas Hope with everyone that touches the postcard, not just the recipient.

So, that being said, I'm tickled about UPrinting.com's custom postcards. With sizes ranging from 4"x6" all the way up to 6"x11", or even custom sizes, the possibilities are just about endless when it comes to postcards.

"Like what?" you say. "Aren't postcards just for 'Wish you were here' messages?"

Make that a resounding "No!"[caption id="attachment_2803" align="alignright" width="300" caption="What's not to love?"]

Invitations - perfect for block parties, premiers, book signings (Shawna!), or community events

Greetings - plenty of Christmas greetings for friends, family, church members, and teachers without the exorbitant cost
